Quick and Easy Apple Tart

Ree Drummond's quick and easy apple tart will impress guests but is a cinch to make. It takes only 30 minutes to put together (thanks to sheets of puff pastry and store-bought caramel sauce), but it'll look like you spent hours on it.

Apple Crumble with Vanilla Ice Cream

Bananas Foster Bread

Super-soft bananas are nice and sweet (green bananas have no place here). Keep them a bit chunky once you mash them so you can get little bits of banana in your bread. Damaris Phillips adds many of the flavors of a traditional bananas Foster dessert, like rum and brown sugar, to this glazed treat.

Apple Brown Butter Tart

Anne Burrell cooks butter low and slow so that it starts to brown and smell like hazelnuts, an aromatic filling for her apple tart. Because it's easier to make a larger quantity of the filling and it lasts in the fridge for a few days, her recipe can make two tarts.

Apple and Walnut Torta

Giada De Laurentiis takes some of her favorite apple pie ingredients and puts them into a delicious torta, which means "cake" in Italian. It's an easy cake to make because you don't need any fancy gadgets to ensure it turns out.

Pear Cobbler with Cranberry Streusel

Streusel is a super-easy topping for in-season pears — it's just flour, butter and sugar. Tyler Florence uses brown sugar to complement the flavor of the pears. Make it special by folding cranberries directly into the streusel topping.
